Next CORE meeting December 13, 2007 at STRS

CORE Alert December 1, 2007

CORE (Concerned Ohio Retired Educators) will hold their December meeting on Thursday, December 13th at the STRS Building at 275 East Broad Street in Columbus. Parking is free in the parking garage behind the building.

We encourage you to attend the STRS meeting which usually begins around 9:00 a.m. on Thursday in the meeting room on the 6th floor. CORE members usually leave the meeting around 11:30 in order to go to the cafeteria on the second floor to get our lunches. We then take our lunches to the small cafeteria room behind the Sublett Rm. on the second floor of the STRS building where the CORE meeting will begin promptly at 11:45.

At noon, a candidate for the contributing member seat on the STRS Board (John Lazares' current seat) will be introduced to the membership and will tell why he wants to run for this position. Dan Vincent is seeking CORE's support and endorsement.

The business meeting will follow Mr. Vincent's visit. We will adjourn the meeting in time to attend the afternoon STRS meeting. We will probably return to the cafeteria room to continue our CORE meeting following the afternoon STRS meeting, the Executive Director's report, and Public Speaks. This will give the membership an opportunity to discuss matters related to the upcoming vacancy on the STRS Board.

All interested persons are welcome to attend. Map/directions to STRS, 275 E. Broad St. Columbus, OH 43215
